A MAN who was attacked by three thugs says he feels let down it has taken 12 days for officers to take his statement.

Grahame Long, 43, a nurse, was assaulted outside McDonald’s in Tollgate, called 999 and was told an officer was on his way.

The attack started when a motorcyclist, offended by the fact Mr Long was using his mobile phone while waiting in the drivethru, grabbed him around the neck and broke his wing mirror.

When Mr Long went to take pictures of the assailant, he was repeatedly punched by three men.

He has preserved evidence, taken photos of his attackers and contacted McDonald’s about CCTV – but police have not been to see him.
